ARDUINO EXPLAINED

What is Arduino?  The Arduino is frankly anything that can be considered fun while learning is a truly revolutionary device in our opinion.  Technically, the Arduino is a programmable logic controller, which is an open-source electronics prototyping platform.  It’s like a little computer you can program to do things, and it interacts with the world through electronic sensors, lights, and motors.  In essence, it makes some truly hardcore electronics projects accessible to anyone – so artists and creative types can concentrate on making their ideas a reality.  It’s the ultimate tinkering tool

How Arduino Looks?

Why Arduino?  Cross-platform  Simple, Clear programming environment  Open source and extensible software  Open source and extensible hardware  Inexpensive

Types of Arduino  Arduino Uno  Arduino Leonardo  Arduino Due  Arduino Yun  Arduino Micro  Arduino Robot  Arduino Esplora  Arduino Mega ADK  Arduino Mega 2560  Arduino Ethernet  Arduino Mini  LilyPad Arduino USB  LilyPad Arduino SimpleSnap  LilyPad Arduino  Arduino Nano  Arduino Pro Mini  Arduino Pro  Arduino Fio

What can be done with this?  It consists of two parts; the hardware and the software, and with these you can build almost anything, from simple glowing light to complicated robots  Our home computers are great at communicating with other computers and (sometimes) with us, but they have no idea what is going on in the world around them.  Arduino, on the other hand, is made to be hooked up to sensors which feed it physical information. These can be as simple as pressing a button, or as complex as using ultrasound to detect distance.

Connectivity  As a piece of hardware, the Arduino can operate either independently (like in a robot), connected to a computer (thereby giving your computer access to sensor data from the outside world and providing feedback), or connected to other Arduino’s, or other electronic devices and controller chips.  Pretty much anything can be connected and is bounded only by your imagination, willingness to put some time and effort into learning something new, and the availability of components.  If you can think of it – the Arduino can do it.

Versatility  An official complete unit costs far less than other micro controller platforms, which makes these little electronic miracle babies accessible to hobbyists and electronic enthusiasts.  The programming language you upload with is incredibly simple, and should be familiar to C or similar languages.  Overall, it is a fantastic learning tool, with which you can experiment with electronics and learn the foundations.
